Oscillator 3 lets you draw your own waves. With two multi-mode filters, one vowel filter, three envelopes, three LFOs, a modulation matrix with seven slots and a selection of effects, Warrior has the ingredients for wide range of in-your-face sounds. It also gives you a choice of two GUI skins.

Warrior is a VST plug-in for Windows (32/64 bit).

Analog Obsession Britpressor

Analog Obsession BritpressorAnalog Obsession’s latest plug-in is a compressor/limiter modeled after vintage British solid-state devices. It offers separate threshold and release (recovery) controls for the compressor and limiter sections, as well as five compression ratio settings from 1.5:1 to 6:1 and a mix knob. There’s also an external sidechain input and you can shape the sidechain signal using a high pass filter and high and mid EQ bands. This looks like a very promising free compressor!

Britpressor is available for macOS and Windows in VST, VST3 and AU formats.
